At a low price, it is the prime candidate for some serious modifications and upgrades. Thus we bring to you the specifically designed upgrade kit containing the Bondtech extruder mecahnism and mounting plate. You just reuse your original motor and away you go.

Description

Got to love the Wanhao i3. We absolutely adore how simple the machine is and how much it can deliver for its price. At a low price, it is the prime candidate for some serious modifications and upgrades. The kit contains everything to get you started with the upgrade.

Bondtech Mini with Dual-Drive gears grips the filament from both sides eliminating slippage or grinding

The smaller effective diameter of the drivegear will increase the torque by about 50% and also the resolution will increase with 50% since the E-step value is 140 compared with the 96 as the standard extruder.

Unlike in the original extruding mechanism filament path is fully guided and this makes the extruder work perfectly with both rigid and flexible filaments,

Standard of course are the drive gears made of hardened steel to withstand wear from exotic filaments with abrasive additives like carbon fiber and glass fibers.

The quick-release lever lets you load and unload filament with ease while the spring loaded lever affords good grip no matter the diameter variation of the filament

This kit uses the original steppermotor that came with the printer and should not take more than 1 hour to complete the upgrade following the step by step instructions.

If there is one upgrade to do to any Raise3D printer, it is to change the extruders to Bondtech. Now even better than ever we offer you the new and improved dual extruding Raise3D Bondtech upgrade kit, the Bondtech DualDirect! A very effective twin splicing of two little BMG extruders with their super 3:1 reduction, lower weight and of course effective Bondtech signature DualDrive extruder gears.

The Bondtech BMG is an extruder that can punch way above its weight. Only 75g without motor it still pulls like a train making it ideal as a replacement on smaller 3d printers. Of course there are still the 2 counter rotating hobbed gears so slipping and grinding is a thing of the past! DOES NOT contain the motor or mounting hardware.
Currently for 1.75 mm size filament only.

In collaboration with our extrusion partners we have formulated Techna Enabler, a very stable yet quickly soluble PVA derivative water soluble support filament. We have tested it with all our filaments and are very happy to say it supports them well and prints easy.

All spools are transparent 0.5kg and are shipped vacuum packed in ziplock bags with dessicant. Retain packaging for longer shelf life!
